Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 627 Can't you drive it yourself?
"I know this is a bit unfair to you, but I'll make it up to you properly once I get the money!" Li Huaide gently put his arm around You Fengxia's shoulder and shamelessly offered his advice.

Little did anyone know that You Fengxia felt not only no resentment, but also anticipation and excitement.

Then, she stood up, slowly walked towards Li Guoqiang, sat down beside him, placed her hand on his lap, and said with a charming smile:

"Young Master Li, is there anything you need me to do?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted someone to go for a drive with me!" Li Guoqiang patted You Fengxia's hand gently and then chuckled as he spoke.

"Oh? Are we leaving now?" You Fengxia's eyes lit up, and she asked in a sweet voice.

"Let's go!" Li Guoqiang immediately stood up upon hearing this.

Furthermore, in front of Li Huaide, he forcefully grabbed You Fengxia's waist before striding out of the dance hall.

Upon seeing this, Li Huaide's eyes twitched slightly, and his expression became somewhat awkward.

Fortunately, he was mentally prepared for this kind of thing and quickly adjusted his emotions.
"Mr. Li, I admire you!" Xu Damao immediately gave Li Huaide a thumbs up after seeing Li Guoqiang leave with You Fengxia.

"Hey! This is all for our cooperation, so that we can all live a good life that others envy." Li Huaide waved his hand and said with a shameless smile.

“That’s right, Mr. Li is right. To our bright future, I’d like to toast you!” Xu Damao was secretly pleased, and then raised his glass to Li Huaide.

"Alright, then let's drink until we drop tonight!" Li Huaide's eyes lit up slightly when he saw this, and then he picked up his wine glass and replied.

If we can get Xu Damao drunk, then he can easily steal the suitcase on the table!

Then he would tell Xu Damao that he was also drunk and didn't know the situation.

In this way, even if Xu Damao wants to sue him, he has money and isn't afraid at all.

However, if he could, he certainly wouldn't choose to rob them directly. Instead, he wanted Xu Damao and Li Guoqiang to invest their money in their project, and then run away with the money.

In this way, you can not only earn more, but also reduce the risk.

At this moment, Xu Damao had no idea that Li Huaide had already decided to rob him and run away. He finished his drink, put down his glass, picked up the bottle to refill it, and smiled at Li Huaide, saying:

"Mr. Li, now that my friend and You Fengxia have left, considering our friendship over the years, I have some good news to tell you. I wonder if you'd be interested?"

"Oh? What good news?" Li Huaide raised an eyebrow, but did not immediately respond.

"You saw it just now, my friend can easily get so much money, so don't you think the amount this time is a bit small?" Xu Damao asked in a low voice with a serious expression.

"What do you mean?" Li Huaide's heart skipped a beat, but he still didn't say anything.

"What I mean is, you should try to pull some strings again and see if you can increase the amount a bit more. At least you need to make sure my friend's 50 yuan is all invested," Xu Damao said seriously, his expression turning serious.

"Well, it's not a big problem. I'll ask my superiors to help me revise it another day." Li Huaide pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

In fact, even if Xu Damao hadn't said anything, he was planning to find an excuse to multiply the amount in the approval document several times over, and then not only get Li Guoqiang to invest the 50 yuan, but also get Li Guoqiang to come up with even more money.

However, the only thing that made him somewhat worried was why Xu Damao wanted to do this.
"That's great, Mr. Li. There's another thing you need to help me with." Xu Damao's face lit up with a delighted smile.

"What is it?" Li Huaide asked calmly.

"I helped you bring in such a large investment, shouldn't you give me a commission? Not much, just 5% will do," Xu Damao said greedily.

"No, 5 points won't do!" Li Huaide chuckled to himself at Xu Damao's attitude, then shook his head and refused.

"Then how much will you say?" Xu Damao frowned, a hint of displeasure on his face.

"If you ask me, I'd give you at least 10 points!" Li Huaide raised an eyebrow and said seriously.

"10 points? You're not kidding me, are you?" Xu Damao was slightly taken aback, then asked in disbelief.

"Of course not! I can promise you that as soon as the money arrives in your account, I can give you the commission first!" Li Huaide shook his head and tempted him in a deep voice.

Anyway, he just wanted to run away with the money, not actually do business with Xu Damao. Now, let alone agreeing to give Xu Damao a 10% commission, even if he agreed to a 50% commission, what difference would it make?
He only hoped that Xu Damao would allow Li Guoqiang to invest more money, considering the 10% commission.

This way, he can make a large sum of money at once.

"Okay, then it's settled!" Xu Damao nodded excitedly.

Then, before Li Huaide could say anything, he pretended to suddenly remember something and said, "Oh right, Mr. Li, there's something else I forgot to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Seeing Xu Damao's behavior, Li Huaide didn't suspect anything and asked directly.

Xu Damao's expression turned serious, and then he spoke with a solemn face:

"My friend said before that he could put up money to do business with us, but the premise is that we have to show him our sincerity and strength."

He has now seen their sincerity; all that's missing is to see their capabilities.

According to him, we need to prepare at least the same amount of money as him.

"No, why does he have so many demands?" Li Huaide complained, sounding rather annoyed.

"Hehe! Well, he's been in Hong Kong for a long time, so he's bound to pick up some bad habits. Please forgive him!" Xu Damao chuckled a few times, then said somewhat apologetically.

After saying that, seeing that Li Huaide did not respond, he hurriedly explained, "In addition, you don't need to feel embarrassed. He just needs to see if we can come up with that much money. He won't ask where our money came from."

All we need to do is find someone to temporarily scrape together that sum of money, show it to them, and then we can get the money back.

"That works!" Li Huaide's expression relaxed upon hearing this explanation, and he nodded in agreement.

Over the years, he has made a lot of money by skirting the law and by cheating and swindling.

If you add it all up, it could amount to three or four hundred thousand.

Therefore, he only needs to find someone to raise another 100,000 to 200,000 yuan to fulfill Li Guoqiang's request.

"Then it's settled. Once you have the money ready, just let me know, and I'll bring the people and the money over." Xu Damao was slightly pleased to see that Li Huaide had taken the bait, and then hurriedly confirmed the deal.

Although he didn't know how Li Guoqiang would take away the money Li Huaide had prepared, he always had blind faith in Li Guoqiang.

At this moment, he was already eager to see Li Huaide end up losing both his money and his life. "Okay, I'll call you when I'm ready." Upon hearing this, Li Huaide immediately nodded readily.

After all, he was just showing the money to Li Guoqiang, not asking him to give the money to Li Guoqiang, so he didn't need to worry about any problems arising.

Just as he was pondering what number to change on the approval document, Li Guoqiang drove You Fengxia out of the city and to a relatively quiet and secluded corner.

He then stopped the car, turned off the engine, turned to look at You Fengxia, and asked softly, "You've probably never tried sleeping in your car before, have you?"

"Sleeping in the car?" You Fengxia was slightly taken aback, then looked at Li Guoqiang with some surprise.

Is this how people in Hong Kong play?

"Let's go! Let's sit in the back!" Li Guoqiang was pleased to see You Fengxia's reaction, then he spoke softly and opened the car door.

Seeing this, You Fengxia couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

She had originally planned to lure Li Guoqiang into a trap and then take the opportunity to find out more about him.

To her surprise, Li Guoqiang was nothing like other men. He showed absolutely no gentlemanly manners in front of her, treating her as if she were a toy.

"What? You don't want to? If you don't want to, then I'll take you back now!" Li Guoqiang frowned slightly when he saw that You Fengxia didn't move, and then said coldly.

As he spoke, he made a move to get back into the driver's seat.

Seeing this, You Fengxia immediately became restless and hurriedly reached out to open the car door.

Soon, she climbed into the back of the car and stared at Li Guoqiang with some resentment.

"Heh!" Li Guoqiang chuckled upon seeing this, then sat down next to You Fengxia and gently took her hand.

"Young Master Li, I heard you came from Hong Kong. I wonder what kind of business you're in?" You Fengxia's eyes flashed, and she tentatively asked.

"What? Are you thinking of changing jobs?" Li Guoqiang raised an eyebrow and then asked with a chuckle.

"Yes! I wonder if Young Master Li would be willing to take in a young lady like me?" You Fengxia nodded and then asked in a sweet voice.

"Well, that depends on how you perform," Li Guoqiang said with a smirk, his words carrying a meaningful undertone.

"Don't worry, I won't let you down!" You Fengxia leaned gently on Li Guoqiang's shoulder and said with a touch of allure.

"Oh? Is that so?" Li Guoqiang immediately questioned upon hearing this.

Faced with the questions, You Fengxia did not offer any explanation. Instead, she silently took out her doctoral supervisor certificate, intending to offer some guidance to Li Guoqiang.

However, Li Guoqiang's problem was simply too thorny. Even with all her efforts, she couldn't get him to open up to her.

"Why don't you try driving me into the ditch and see if I can climb out by myself?" Li Guoqiang suggested immediately when he saw that You Fengxia seemed to have no other choice.

Upon hearing this, You Fengxia hesitated for a moment, but eventually stood up slowly, preparing to sit in the driver's seat and help drive around the mountain valleys for a while or two.

However, to her surprise, even after driving around the remote mountain valleys seven or eight times, Li Guoqiang still refused to open up to her.

If she kept driving like this, she was starting to worry that the car would run out of gas.

"Hey, drive faster! Driving so slowly, it's no fun at all." Li Guoqiang urged as soon as he saw the car slow down.

"No, can't you drive it yourself?" Upon hearing this, You Fengxia rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Okay, then you get out, I'll drive myself. Don't blame me for driving too fast!" Seeing that You Fengxia was unwilling to increase the speed, Li Guoqiang had no choice but to switch places with her.

"Tch, do they really think I'm some kind of big shot? I've ridden in the fastest cars before!" You Fengxia muttered to herself as she got up to change seats.

However, she soon realized that she had spoken too soon.

As soon as Li Guoqiang grabbed the steering wheel, he stepped on the accelerator and quickly accelerated to 80 miles per hour.

Then, the speed increased so much that You Fengxia couldn't react in time and could only hear the whooshing sound of the wind in her ears.

This made her increasingly afraid, fearing that Li Guoqiang would break the car apart.

When her heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat, Li Guoqiang finally released the accelerator and slowly brought the car to a stop.

"Ugh!" You Fengxia glanced at Li Guoqiang, feeling a little dizzy, and then hurriedly stuck her head out of the car window, letting out a dry heaving sound.

To be honest, this wasn't her first time riding in a car, but she had never made herself throw up like this before.

This shows just how recklessly Li Guoqiang drives.

"Hey, are you alright?" Li Guoqiang asked with a chuckle after pulling the handbrake.

"Ugh!" Upon hearing this, You Fengxia was about to curse when she felt nauseous again.

Left with no other option, she could only continue to press her face against the car window, dry heaving as she looked out.

This went on for a while, and just when she finally recovered, Li Guoqiang's voice came from behind her again.

"Hey, are you done yet? If you are, let's go for a drive!"

Before You Fengxia could answer, Li Guoqiang grabbed the lever, shifted the gear to second gear, and then stepped on the accelerator and released the clutch.

The next moment, the car suddenly lurched forward, nearly scaring You Fengxia to death.

"No, you're crazy!" You Fengxia's eyes widened, and she let out a cry of surprise and despair.

"It's alright, you've ridden in cars all the time! Just bear with it!" Li Guoqiang replied nonchalantly.

With his master-level medical skills, he wasn't worried at all that You Fengxia would be frightened into having any problems.

All he cares about is whether he has enough fun and whether he can enjoy himself to the fullest.
Soon, thanks to his world-class driving skills, You Fengxia fell into a state of mental confusion.
